>>8020438holy shit there´s straight up porn in Jewtube >>8020651
>>8021741Youtube allows for nudity for 'educational purposes', though this is often vaguely applied.There is (or was) a load of 'nude yoga' videos, which doesn't seem very educational, but they say it's to help with the yoga moves' posture and such, and have remained up.I suppose if you're looking for figure drawing videos though, you can take a look at those.Funnily enough, actual nude models for drawing purpose, I believe, get taken down -- as I've seen very very few.
>>8021774i know of those channels but they usually link to paid adult content or camwhore sitesthink i got one or two of such chinese channels taken downalso a 4million sub channel where some camwhore exposed herself in public calling it "pranks" and using tags like pokemon or paw patrol, finally got taken downi also took down sukkujin or whatever he is called because he posted fetish content+ straight up graphic nuditythere is so much actual suspicious goonslop on youtube its insanelike, just don't post such content on non-porn sites while also aiming it at kids and without any real age restriction, it's not that hard

>>8018077yes, i joined once, my internet went down for a couple days the next day (probably ddos attacks)i joined recently after many years, the next day same thing happenedit's not like it's a problem for me but whoever fucked around is about to find out
>>8017741You can right click on peoples names and yoink the brush
why would I ever bother trying to draw circles correctly when this exists
>>8021370every curve is an ellipse
>>8021073You want your art to have soul, don't you?
>>8021466I wish there was a cure for retardation, i really do. Good luck.
>>8021722zoomzoom
I use the lids off jars,cans,and plates to trace out circles.
How did I do?
>>8016376It’s recognizable, so, good job!
Not bad. I remember once reading a story on 4chan about making the rarest pepe. Idea is to draw it on a piece of paper without looking at it and then burn it.
>>8016376Nice forg
My sirs, i'm swamped in commissions and now I can't handle them all, is it frowned upon to do refunds?
>>8020134>can't handlehere's where you should kys yourself
>>8020175Good practical advice
>>8020161>>8020159just finish your commission first before accepting payment, then watermark/jpeg it and wait for the client to send money over. then send them the clean PNG once it's paidor umm... have a limited number of slots
>>8021193Faggot mindset
just refund and apologize. If that's how it is it's how it is.
Is this the secret to great composition?
go draw, shitposting nigger
yeah you can just put that spiral on whatever you want and people will think it's good composition
>>8020000Nice get my friend, Kyriakos is auricnumberpilled!
>>8020318Oh wow nice, I didn't even see it
>>8020105if the subject is brown, it will unbalance any composition
Mechstuff thread. Mechs, robots, robot girls, weapons, armour, vehicles, military, engineering, transportation, scifi, etc. Post 'em.
>>8018398Industrial design would definitely help. HR Giger studied industrial design. That's probably one of the reasons why he was able to make his biomechanical paintings look very realistic partly.I guess studying Scott Robertson could probably help.
Here’s my most recent mech girl, studies and techniques based on Masamune Shirow and rendering techniques inspired by Jim Lees stream. I love the way he uses the black and and white star splatter. I achieved the after burn particles with a tooth brush.
>>8018395aww sweet, was hoping we'd have another one of these threads.here are my WIP floor plans for my kilometer-long covie ship. about 55% done with deck 1 of 12. scaled at M6.667 scale (1 pixel = 15x15 centimeters, or a little less than 6 inches)full image here: https://itaku.ee/images/1348257anyone else experiencing a "captcha expired" bug? ublock issue?
Any tips on drawing guns?
>>8021319most important thing is the handle. doesn't matter how big the gun is, the handle has to be the right size for the wielder. handles are usually 1.25 to 1.5 inches wide and around 5 or 6 inches long.
itt post interesting poses

>>8021274They also didn't get a successful movie based on their work...

>>8021274how did this scene die? The internet? Or corporations?
>>8021468>how did this scene die? The internet? Or corporations?It was dead long before the Internet was mainstream, basically morphed into the Alternative Comics scene of the 80's long before that. What killed the undergrounds was the "stagflation" of the 1970's, where costs were dramatically rising, but unemployment was at an all-time high. It became less economically viable for underground comix to survive when everything including printing and distribution were skyrocketing in price, and nobody could make decent money off printing underground comix anymore. Also local police in Southern states and more conservative districts started busting head shops for carrying comix behind the counter as "obscenity", which scared a lot of shop owners from even wanting to carry underground comix.
You know, I'm somewhat of an artist myself.
we need to rangeban the southern hemisphere

>>8017394kill yourself
i want to have sex with that pan
thank you
In 2D/3D you literally cannot fake competence and your experience. AI is really bad at faking those kinds of things the industry actually needs. For example, even to create art for a trashy game like Genshin Impact, you need an army of 3D and 2D artists, and it's simply impossible to fake the ability to draw art like that.On the other hand, the software dev industry is full of people who use AI to fake their portfolios, skills and knowledge, fake their work experience, use AI during job interviews, and so on. There are plenty of stories about people who landed senior software developer positions at large companies with zero work experience simply by faking their work history, lying on their CVs, and using cheating tactics on interviews (such as using AI during live coding, algorithmic and theoretical questions). It takes a couple of months to learn to program via some random online webdev bootcamp, but it takes your entire life to learn to draw industry-level art.Unlike software engineers, artists cannot fake their portfolios, because AI hasn’t reached a level where its 2d/3d work is indistinguishable from that of a real artist. You’ll need to attach actual examples of your work in portfolio, which will be used to evaluate you. There are no 3-5 rounds of interviews, theoretical questions, LeetCode problems or live coding like in the software engineering industry. In artist industry at most you’ll be given a take-home test assignment that you can complete over a couple of days in your own time.As an 3d artist you can just model and animate your own game assets and then vibecode the game logic and code without any programmer and software engineer required.A handcrafted 2d art for a splash screen for Krita is more in demand by open source projects than some random 1000-line code commit adding a useless feature nobody asked for.Artists are unironically way more in demand than coders right now. But I hope that 2d art won't become that "next big thing"
>trashy game like Genshin ImpactNo, u
>>8021191welp, maybe not so trashy
Are Flanders posters fucking furries??
>>8021259All gacha games are trash simply because one day the trans executives will pull the plug because it's not doing as good as Wuxia Wong Tang Clan Shadow Warriors and those that could make change proved they don't want to hold these companies accountable for making offline versions.
>>8021275That's exactly why I only play offline gacha games, but they're not usually called gacha even if they contain gacha elements and they are japanese/chinese/korean
Is 24 too late to become a great digital artist? I wasn't born with "it" but lately I've been feeling like this want I want to do with my life.But I fear that I will not be able to make it because I wasn't one of those kids that started out young.Can I make it?
>>8014425if you arent sitting at 30k+ followers on insta and twitter and earning $1k+ per month on patreon by age 12 it's basipally over for you
>>8015275I think they yield some really good answers that a static sticky couldn't mirror.It's understandable that you get bored of this, but you witness slow evolution.
>>8015630At least you have still a chance at a gf and that's what all that drawing and wealth accumulation is for, aye?30+ you better get used to being a vow-taking monk.
>>8017711>atleast loser millenials on average got to have fun and lots of sexHaha y-yeah hah
>>8014458wow
>Upload art to Twitter>"Sorry, we have to delete your entire account because we think you're botting because you like too many things. No you can't appeal fuck you, die.">Upload to Booru site.>"Your art doesn't meet our quality standards. Die.">Upload to Pixiv>"この愚かなアメリカの犬め、お前は決して日本人にはなれない。さあ、死ね!"Is there really nowhere to upload my work besides Deviantart?
>>8020588>I hate social media and I hate people>I want to make a twatter account tho and talk to people thereReally nigga?
>>8020588Your posts are completely deranged. You're claiming that you hate social media and you hate people, but you're REALLY angry that you can't show your art to people. Doesn't make much sense.
>>8021196>>8021197There isn't any alternatives.
>>8021151god i hope soi'm tired of seeing amerisharts trying to pass their art off as "anime"
>>8021200No negro, social medias are optional, and so is human contact. If you hate that, you don't have to engage. No one's forcing you to talk to people other than you yourself.
How can I design a girl with very subtle sex appeal? I don't want porn, but I want to subconsciously titillate the viewer. My goal is for the viewer to acknowledge the character as sexually attractive, but is still looking at them normally. The best way to describe it is: A young boy who's saw the spark of a woman in his female childhood friend for a split second.Anime like Sailor Moon is a good start, but more blatant with it's sex appeal (long legs, miniskirts, tight clothes, emphasis on thighs, etc.) But does anyone else know anything similar? Picrel is a drawing from AKari on RedNote. The girl is very "healthy" and full looking while not being fat. She's also got a miniskirt with decent thighs and legs. This is probably the #1 best example of what I'm talking about.
>>8019080actually, now when i look down my eyes stop on the image border and i can grope her thighs and pussy with my eyes instead of being distracted by those long ass legs
As a follow up to my previous posts, also consider the audience you are appealing to. For example, if you know you have degenerates in your audience like >>8019259it also shows how you dont really have to try that hard to appeal to them. People who are looking for shit to jack off to will find it in a many of places. In that sense makinga design that leaves more to the imagination can be very useful. There is a science to that, a hot bitch in a stripper outfit would look a lot hotter if she wore a sundress.
>>8019470NTA, but I also felt the crop placed more emphasis on her thighs, since they were right there at the bottom of the frame.
>>8019494Nah yeah it was more of a shitpost comment. Since the entire figure aside from her face is a cold color, but the thighs have the same warm color as her face, it makes sense why its still a prominent thing a viewer would notice.Final point for OP, color choices matter also for drawing attention to what you want to focus on
>>8019470Thanks for your help anonI think I'm getting it now
